SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

FR Doc. 202117394 Filed 93021; 8:45 am
Department of Veterans Affairs.
Final rule.

AGENCY:

Background The purpose of this rule is to make minor final revisions and edits to three completed parts that are necessary to conform with FAR writing style, standard Government publication formats and drafting standards. VA is updating these parts to ensure standardization in titles with FAR
drafting principles, as well as to update any VA organizational changes subsequent to the final rules. In particular, this rulemaking makes technical administrative amendments to part 802, Definitions; part 852, Solicitation Provisions and Contract Clauses; and part 853, Forms.
The three parts addressed in this action have been reviewed and revised as affected parts during the course of the VAAR rewrite project. This is, therefore, a technical, non-substantive change to the texts of these three parts to ensure conformity with those standards.
Discussion and Analysis Technical corrections include the following:
a. For part 802:
1 Section 802.101 is amended to revise the definition for the Chief Acquisition Officer; the definition for COTR has been removed; the definition for COR has been added to reflect the
PO 00000

Frm 00064

Fmt 4700

Sfmt 4700

current use of COR; the definitions for HCA and SPE have been revised to reflect the current organization structure of VA, and to update the website listed for Vendor Information Pages VIP has been updated.
2 Section 802.101 is also amended to delete the following definitions: Deputy Senior Procurement Executive DSPE
and Resident Engineer. The DSPE role is currently inactive at the VA and the current definition for Resident Engineer is inaccurate and unnecessary.
b. For part 852:
1 Section 852.101 is redesignated as section 852.10170 to conform with the VAAR numbering convention.
2 Section 852.102 is amended to correct the word chapter because it was misspelled and to update website addresses in paragraphs e and f that have since changed.
3 Subpart 852.2 is amended to capitalize all the major words in the section titles of the provisions and clauses.
4 Section 852.21675 is amended to delete the word clause in the title and to capitalize the major words in the title of the clause.
c. For part 853:
1 Subpart 853.2 is amended to remove section 853.201 and section 853.2011 as they include references to the VA Contracting Officer Certification Program which no longer exists.
2 Subpart 853.2 is amended to remove section 853.215 and section 853.21570 as they are no longer referenced within the VAAR.
3 Amend Section 853.236 as well as sections 853.23670, 853.23671, and 853.23672 to standardize the format and style convention.
4 Amend subpart 853.2 to remove sections 853.2711 and 853.2712 as this coverage is no longer needed in the VAAR as the authority to perform the functions outlined in these sections are established by other provisions of law.
Notice and Comment This rule makes administrative changes that do not require notice and comment procedures, consistent with 41
U.S.C. 1707, 48 CFR 1.301, and related authority. The changes will not have a significant effect on any party and will not have a significant cost or administrative impact on contractors or offerors.
